Article title: « Maladie de Huntington: les protéines en cause transpercent le noyau des neurones »
The article discusses the latest research on the Maladie de Huntington (Huntington’s disease), a neurodegenerative disorder. The research shows that the mutant huntingtin protein, which is known to cause the disease, is able to penetrate the nucleus of neurons. This is significant because the nucleus is the part of the cell where DNA is stored, and damage to the nucleus can lead to the death of neurons.
Answer to your question: Yes, according to a recent study, the mutant huntingtin protein, which causes Huntington’s disease, is able to penetrate the nucleus of neurons.
